    ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

    There is something deeply wrong with a section of their fanbase.

    2024/25 David Moyes

    I would be over the moon if we won the Conference League or League Cup. With regard to the latter though, I would have supported resting key players in earlier rounds as I worried about losing them for a relegation fight. I'd really love us to be playing in European Group stage games again...

    Match Thread Everton V Southampton. Sun May 18th. 12 pm

    Just have to win the game. It's a big thing, certainly for me. I don't expect we'll cruise to victory but we do want a happy occasion to the extent we can get it. It would be such a terrible shame to say goodbye with a whimper. Into these blues!

    2024/25 David Moyes

    Thought yesterday was a big win for him in the context of the whole time he has been back. I thought it was going to be a meek surrender and that the season would just fizzle out. The away form has been largely good and that offers encouragement. Next Sunday is a big game for everyone and...

    Joe Royle

    One of my all-time favourite Evertonians. I was not around to enjoy his playing days but I was overjoyed when he became manager. It was such a shame the way it ended.

    Tim Howard retrospectively: an under appreciated Everton no. 1?

    I thought he was decent enough for most of his time here. He was definitely more clanger prone towards the end of his time. He certainly couldn't match up to Pickford or Martyn in modern times but that bar is very high indeed. We've had genuine world class keepers and some awful duds and he...

    Big win. Credit to Moyes and lads.

    Match Thread Fulham 1-3 Everton – Saturday 10 May, 15:00

    I don't think he'll go but things have gone flat a bit. I suppose in some ways that's to be expected but I don't like the idea of the season just fizzling out as it seems it might. A win today would be a very decent scalp for Moyes if he could get it. It would be more credit in the bank and he...

    2024/25 David Moyes

    I'm concerned about the recruitment process for this reason. There is no point buying players that the current manager won't use, but there seems to be no effective counterweight to Moyes at present who will think in the longer-term. There has to be an immediate improvement next season but it...

    Richarlison

    I would only do a loan. Overall though it would feel like a lazy approach and one that I would hope would not be in keeping with any broader plans. There is a world full of players out there.

    New Everton Stadium

    It's change, just in a different form to what we were expecting. It will be interesting to see what other features they could incorporate on site in the context of a much smaller capacity. There is probably a lot of goodwill to be had as well. I'd be looking to offer naming rights for both...

    New Everton Stadium

    Is there a tentative date for the third test event? You would think at that point if this story is true, then any delay might be more apparent by the time that comes around. If it's just a few games, then they can let the release of the fixture list do the talking for them. Otherwise, it...

    New Everton Stadium

    A delay until September wouldn't be the end of the world, we couldn't be playing more away games beyond the international break though surely. Guess we won't know for sure until the fixtures are released. It can't take that long for the fit-out, with the time they've already had, but I guess...

    The Now-Irrelevant 2024/25 Relegation Battle (Without Everton!)

    I feel pretty much the same. Still hope we have enough about us to win Vs Soton but not expecting anything of the other games really. Just want the season to be over now and get to July when we can get some players in. I'm still optimistic for next season and really looking forward to the new...
